4.3 Ito Integral for General Integrands • In this section, the Ito Integral for integrands that allowed to vary continuously with time and jump • Assume • is adapted to the filtration • Also assume
In order to define , we approximate by simple process. • it is possible to choose a sequence of simple processes such that as these processes converge to the continuously varying . • By “converge”, we mean that
Theorem 4.3.1 Let T be a positive constant and let be adapted to the filtration F(t) and be an adapted stochastic process that satisfies Then has the following properties. (1)(Continuity) As a function of the upper limit of integration t, the paths of I(t) are continuous. (2)(Adaptivity)For each t, I(t) is F(t)-measurable.
(3)(Linearity) If and then furthermore, for every constant c, (4)(Martingale) I(t) is a martingale. (5)(Ito isometry) (6)(Quadratic variation)
Example 4.3.2 Computing We choose a large integer n and approximate the integrand by the simple process
As shown in Figure 4.3.2. Then • By definition, • To simplify notation, we denote
We conclude that • In the original notation, this is
As , we get • Compare with ordinary calculus. If g is a differentiable function with g(0)=0, then
If we evaluated then we would not have gotten ,this term. In other words,
---① ---② Then,①-② Weconclude that
, So We conclude that and We have
is called the Stratonovich integral. • Stratonovich integral is inappropriate for finance. • In finance, the integrand represents a position in an asset and the integrator represents the price of that asset.
The upper limit of integrand T is arbitrary, then • By Theorem4.3.1 • At t = 0, this martingale is 0 and its expectation is 0. • At t > 0, if the term is not present and EW2(t) = t, it is not martingale.
